About this episode

Charles and Van stumble back into The Beef to recap the fifth and sixth episodes of ‘The Bear’ Season 3.

Later, they unpack why “Napkins” is one of the strongest episodes of the series to date (24:03).


Hosts: Charles Holmes and Van Lathan

Producer: Kai Grady

Additional Production Support: Justin Sayles
